    Ingredients:

    • 200g granulated sugar
    • 5 tablespoons golden syrup
    • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
    • A pinch of salt

    Method:

    1. Prepare Your Pan: Line a baking tray with baking paper, ensuring it's greaseproof. This will make it easier to remove the honeycomb later.

    2. Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and golden syrup. Stir them together gently over low heat until the sugar has completely dissolved.

    3. Boil the Mixture: Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a vigorous boil. Allow it to bubble away for about 3-4 minutes, without stirring. Keep a close eye on the temperature; it should reach approximately 149°C (300°F) to achieve that perfect crunch.

    4. Add Bicarbonate of Soda: Once the mixture has reached the correct temperature, immediately remove it from the heat and stir in the bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt. Be cautious, as the mixture will bubble up dramatically.

    5. Pour and Cool: Quickly pour the bubbly mixture onto the prepared baking tray, spreading it gently into an even layer. Allow it to cool completely, which should take around 30 minutes.

    6. Break and Enjoy: Once cooled and set, break the honeycomb into pieces and enjoy its delightful crunch. You can also dip it in melted chocolate for an indulgent twist!
